I agree 100%. I am using the QNAP TS-110, which has the same processor and memory as your TS-210. The problem is very minor on my setup. First, like Ralphpnj says, it only happens at the very beginning of an album. The first song in the album that is played. It re-buffers for a couple of seconds shortly after the song starts. After that, everything is perfect. Second, it happens fairly rarely. Maybe once every tenth time or so. This minor "glitch" would certainly not keep me from listening to the excellent 24/96 FLAC from HDTracks. If it ever gets fixed, so much the better, but if it never does, it wouldn't bother me all that much. I did watch the system resources monitor on the NAS last night while playing 24/96. The processor often hits 100% usage when a 24/96 album is first started, so lack of processor power is possibly the reason this is happening. The memory utilization stays at 128MB (out of 256MB available), so I don't think that is the issue. Of course it could also be something else. I will probably try the suggestions given to me to move the server to my desktop computer (just as a learning exercise). But even if I determine that the NAS is the problem, I will keep using the NAS as the host for the server. The re-buffering isn't enough of an issue to make me boot up my computer to listen to music.
